Definitions

  • production lines are often used, which next to a cutting device such as a high-performance slicer several juxtaposed conveyors such as portioning, Aukahdroiter, spreading conveyor, distribution conveyor, buffer conveyor and infeed conveyor.
  • a packaging machine which, from a provided plastic film web by means of a deep-drawing process, makes available an arrangement of packages in which the products or product portions are usually inserted in formats by means of an infeed conveyor.
  • a deep-drawing unit packaging machine is also referred to in the art as a "thermoformer”.
  • the loading conveyor is often referred to as "depositor" shortened.
  • the insert must be positioned above the thermoformer, which is easily possible with laterally projecting arrangement of the conveyor unit.
  • the DE 102 38 482 A1 an apparatus for loading goods into a packaging machine or the like is disclosed.
  • the device has a conveying device for the goods. At least a part of the conveying device is pivotable about a pivot axis.
  • a "device for processing food products” in the sense of the invention should generally be understood to mean any device which serves for processing, processing and / or handling of individual or portioned food products. Furthermore, it is understood that an arrangement of a product conveyor with laterally projecting conveyor unit and a at least partially arranged under the conveyor unit working unit can be used in many ways in the environment of food processing and processing, so not only in the form of a combination of depositors and thermoformers. For example, the work unit could also be another product conveyor.
  • the conveyor units of an insert must be suitable for format-rate promotion and therefore have a working width of 40 cm to 80 cm, so project relatively strong laterally.
  • the design must also be sufficiently rigid, as in operation vibrations that could affect proper alignment of the products or portions are unacceptable. At the same time, good accessibility of all machine areas for cleaning and maintenance work must be guaranteed.
  • the relatively large thermoforming tool must be able to be inserted and removed upwards and sideways.
  • the frames because of the design-related top-to-bottom strength, the frames generally need to have a high level of stability, which is why they are correspondingly heavy - often up to several tons.
  • the frame of the product conveyor is supported or held by a mechanical connection to the working unit.
  • the frame is also fixed to the work unit.
  • the product conveyor is integrated into the working unit.
  • the mass and stiffness or stability of the unit of work can be used to add extra stability to the frame of the product conveyor.
  • this allows for a lighter and more compact design for the product conveyor.
  • the invention is based on the recognition that in many application situations of the aforementioned type it is not necessary to design the working unit and the product conveyor as independent, stable machines, since they are always used together in any case.
  • the art has hitherto been based on the idea of providing completely separate constructions, for example for thermoformers and inserts.
  • the invention is therefore the general idea to use a to be arranged under a product conveyor with laterally projecting conveyor unit working unit to build the product conveyor itself more compact and easier.
  • the mass, rigidity or stability and / or the enclosed space of the working unit can be used to improve the support of the product conveyor.
  • the frame of the product conveyor may be supported in horizontal and / or vertical direction on the working unit.
  • a support in the horizontal and in the vertical direction allows a particularly high stability of the overall device.
  • the frame is supported with at least one horizontal frame region and / or with at least one vertical frame region on the working unit.
  • a specific embodiment of the invention provides that the product conveyor is completely carried by the working unit. This is a departure from the common principle of always constructing product conveyors as standalone devices. Ultimately, in the aforementioned embodiment, therefore, a working unit with an integrated product conveyor, that is, for example, a thermoformer with an integrated insert, is provided.
  • the frame of the product conveyor may be mounted at a distance from a stand and / or floor at the work unit. This means that the product conveyor can only be supported by the work unit on the stand or on the ground. The absence of own feet for the product conveyor allows a considerable saving of weight and space. In addition, a food processing machine with few feet is particularly easy to clean.
  • the frame of the product conveyor may be supported both on a standing surface and / or on the floor as well as on the working unit. This allows a particularly stable overall construction.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the frame of the product conveyor alone is not sufficient for a stable carrying the conveyor unit, ie that the frame only together with the working unit sufficient rigidity and stability for carrying and operating the conveyor unit provides.
  • the product conveyor is simply equipped with a lightweight frame to save weight, cost and space.
  • the desired stability arises only by the support on the working unit and utilization of their mass and rigidity or stability.
  • a further embodiment of the invention provides that the frame of the product conveyor is fixed to a, in particular lateral, holding frame of the working unit.
  • the frame of the product conveyor may be hung or screwed to a frame of the work unit.
  • Many working units have externally accessible frame members, such as profile beams, which can be used to attach the frame of the product conveyor.
  • the conveying unit of the product conveyor is movable with respect to the frame between a lowered operating position and a raised maintenance position.
  • the conveyor unit When the conveyor unit is in the raised service position, it provides easy and safe access to the underlying work unit, for example, to replace a thermoforming tool. It is not necessary here to set aside the product conveyor as a whole or to carry out complex assembly work.
  • the conveying unit of the product conveyor can be moved away from the working unit, in particular by pivoting or folding away.
  • a hinge connection may be provided, which allows a pivoting or folding away of the conveyor unit relative to the frame in a stationary frame, in particular about a pivot axis extending parallel to the conveying direction.
  • a further embodiment of the invention provides that a functional unit of the working unit is movable together with the conveyor unit, wherein, preferably, the functional unit is attached to a lower side, in the lower region and / or below the conveyor unit.
  • the functional unit may be, for example, a protective cover of the working unit, which is to be removed during maintenance.
  • a protective cover can be moved together with the delivery unit, for example, between an operating position and a maintenance position, it is not necessary for a user to remove the protective cover separately.
  • this can be permanently ensured in all operating positions that product residues or detergent drops do not reach down into the area of the working unit. The handling of the device can thus be simplified and its cleanliness can be further improved.
  • the functional unit In an operating position, the functional unit preferably provides an operating function of the working unit and at the same time an operating function of the conveying unit.
  • the functional unit may form a protective cover for a thermoformer and at the same time a collecting device for deflecting or collecting particles which fall off the conveyor unit above it.
  • a separate construction of thermoformer and insert generally it is necessary to provide both the thermoformer with a protective cover and the insert in the area below the conveyor unit with a collecting sheet or the like.
  • the working unit may comprise means or parts of means for automatically packaging the conveyed products, for example a so-called thermoformer.
  • the working unit may have other and / or further facilities for processing and processing the subsidized food products.
  • the product conveyor is preferably designed to load the conveyed products into respective packaging units provided by the automatic packaging device. Such a thing designed device thus forms a unit of a packaging machine and an associated infeed conveyor. Such units are often required in the field of food processing and need according to the invention due to the modular structure of product conveyor on the one hand and work unit on the other hand to be created on site directly on site.
  • the product conveyor may be configured to group products or individual product portions, to form product lines or portions comprising multiple products, and / or to formulate product product portions or portions comprising multiple products.
  • positioning means are provided, by means of which the position of the frame, in particular of horizontal and / or vertical frame regions, relative to the working unit, especially when supported on the work unit or held frame adjustable and held in a set state
  • the positioning means are variable in their defining a distance between the frame and the working unit length.
  • elements or parts of the frame for example horizontally or vertically extending frame parts of the product conveyor, may be variable in length in order to adapt the product conveyor to the working unit or to its means for supporting or holding or fixing the product conveyor.
  • the frame engages below or encompasses the working unit, wherein in particular a horizontally projecting frame region of the frame extends from one side of the working unit below it to the opposite side and opposite thereto Side of the work unit is fixed.
  • a particularly evenly distributed force introduction into the frame of the working unit can be realized.
  • additional feet for the product conveyor can be omitted, whereby a good cleaning of the floor or the floor space is facilitated.
